The paradox of Israel's pursuit of might

That's the apt title given on the Guardian's website to a trimmed version of a Leonard Stein lecture by Max Hastings. In today's paper edition it was titled "How I fell out of love with Israel", which sounds dramatic but sells the lecture a little short. The original lecture title was "The limits of force in the Middle East".

As a critical friend, I recommend any one of them.
